Well, I did something similar to this for users accessing Oracle via a PC, using Oracle*Terminal and Procomm Plus to remap the vt100 keyboard more to my liking, including swapping the <backspace> and <delete> functions so that they are more natural, and having the numeric keypad as a numeric keypad.
It took me only a couple of hours to do it, but took longer than that to THINK about what I wanted where! (And I'm not sure I've got it quite the way I want it yet.)
